The face of a "Lodzermensc", or the image of a man of Łódź in the "Promised Land" by Władysław Stanisław Reymont

Twarz lodzermenscha, czyli wizerunek człowieka łódzkiego w "Ziemi obiecanej" Władysława Stanisława Reymonta

Author(s): Adam Hemer / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 3/2014

The first part of the article is an attempt to present the full definition of a „lodzer-mensch“. In the literary variation, it is a ruthless businessman, professing the ethos of the industrial Łódź. The author confronts the proposed definition with the four central characters of W.S. Reymont's Promised Land. The qualities of a „lodzermensch“ are the most complete in Moryc Welt, while Karol Borowiecki is more of a "Don Juan" than a man of Łódź. Herman Bucholc is king and the spectre of the industrial Łódź, physically transformed by his own factory. Stach Wilczek is a mixture of Welt and Borowiecki, and an interesting attribute of this character is his violin. Also mentioned is the film adaptation of the novel, directed by Andrzej Wajda. The author, focusing on Borowiecki, juxtaposes the film version of a lodzermensch with the novel original.

„Real Men”. On Social Realist Fiction and its Continuators

„Prawdziwi” mężczyźni. O prozie socrealizmu i jej kontynuatorach

Author(s): Sławomir Buryła / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 1+2 (8)/2016

Keywords: masculinity; social realism; war; heroism

The author of the article analyses the transformations of the category of masculinity in social realist literature. For Stalinism a negative point of reference in the fight over a new model of masculinity was war and an image of young, brave soldiers of the Home Army, associated with the tradition of the Second Polish Republic. The attempts were made to juxtapose this model with a new type of masculinity founded on the idea of physical work on the reconstruction of the country, an image of a heroic soldier of the Red Army and the Secret Police functionaries. In the 1960s and 1970s the authors of militia fiction and the works belonging to the so‑called military patriotism referred to this Stalinist concept of masculinity.

Optimisation of the Objectives of Sustainable Development on the Example of Inland Fishery in the Barycz Valley

Optymalizacja celów zrównoważonego rozwoju na przykładzie rybactwa śródlądowego w Dolinie Baryczy

Author(s): Magdalena Raftowicz-Filipkiewicz / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 6A/2013

Keywords: sustainability development; inland fishery; optimisation; Barycz Valley;

This article presents the issue of inland fisheries in terms of sustainable development. Its main aim is an attempt to prove that the realisation of optimal objectives of sustainable development requires a systematic approach which imposes a need to include the cultural, institutional, technological and political dimension. The author argues that the main problem associated with implementation of the principles of sustainable development is the lack of holistic vision, which interferes the process of optimising its objectives and contributes to the emergence of conflicts in the line of ecology - economics - society. On the example of inland fisheries in the Barycz Valley, the author also tries to demonstrate that in order to optimise the objectives of sustainable development, it should be implemented an effective mechanism for compensation of losses for inland fishermen caused by protection of fish-eating birds. The study was based on a critical analysis of domestic and foreign literature in the field of sustainable development as well as analysis of documents of the Barycz Valley Association, observations and interviews with representatives of fish farms and residents of the Barycz Valley. This approach can reduce in future the risk of making wrong decisions in the social-environmental-economic area, which are against the principle of optimisation of the goals of sustainable development.

„The open hand held out”. On relations of landscape and corporeal experiencing of space in Stanisław Lem’s Wypadek (The Accident)

„Wyciągnięta otwarcie ręka” O związkach pejzażu i cielesnego doświadczania przestrzeni w Wypadku Stanisława Lema

Author(s): Maciej Dajnowski / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 13/2010

The way, the scenery of the presented reality is shaped, seems to be an important medium of anthropological concepts, including the relation between experiencing the sublimity of nature and cognition and acting, as well as it appears to function as the space of meanings established by both – the efforts of memory and imagination and the carnal experience.

“Heritage without a home”. The Orthodox Church of Saint Alexandra the Martyr in Stanislawowo near Modlin in the Second Polish Republic and today

„Dziedzictwo bez ojczyzny”. Cerkiew prawosławna św. Męczennicy Aleksandry w Stanisławowie pod Modlinem w latach II Rzeczypospolitej i współcześnie

Author(s): Piotr Zubowski / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 2/2017

Keywords: Orthodoxy; Orthodox Church; Alexandria colony; Stanislawowo; Modlin; II Polish Republic; Russian Empire; tangible cultural heritage

The paper aims to present the history of the Orthodox parish founded on the orders of the Tsarist authorities in the 1930s for the settlers specially brought from Russia to Warsaw. The parish, together with the monumental Orthodox Church of Saint Alexandra the Martyr, flourished until the outbreak of World War I, when the army and the Russian administration were evacuated from the Kingdom of Poland and the Church was destroyed. After Poland had regained its independence, the Church lost its former privileges and started to attract the hostility and unwillingness on the part of the Polish authorities. Despite this, thanks to the efforts of the remaining faithful, the Church was rebuilt (although in a much more modest form), and the faithful were given an Orthodox priest. Today, the Church, being the only rural Orthodox temple in Mazovia, is covered by conservator’s protection and is considered a symbol of multiculturalism.Using the Orthodox Church of Saint Alexandra as an example, the paper is an attempt to illustrate how Poland manages the unwanted, “inconvenient” heritage which over time is integrated into the Polish cultural landscape and becomes devoid of negative evaluation.The deliberations are based primarily on the archival administrative and parish records kept in the Central Archives of Modern Records (AAN) and on the iconographic materials from the Central Archives of Historical Records (AGAD).

Research in Daukša's Postille 1: Deppelling

Untersuchungen zu Daukšas Postille – I. Doppelungen

Author(s): Wolfgang Hock / Language(s): German / Issue: 14/2012

Keywords: Dauška; Postille; Deppelling; Doppelung; Semantics; Old Lithuanian texts;

The German term ‘Doppelung’ refers to the occurence of two (seldom three) semantically equivalent words or phrases in a translated text that correspond to a single word in the source document. Subject of the present article are correspondences of this type between Daukša’s Poſtilla Catholicka (DaP, 1599) and Wujek’s Poſtilla Catholicka Mnieyſza (W3, 1590). The cases in question are collected as completely as possible and analyzed linguistically. The linguistic description encompasses formal and semantic aspects such as presence or absence of conjunction, type of conjunction, distribution and the nature of the semantic equivalence. It turns out that the linguistic term ‘synonymy’ is too narrow to cover the whole range of semantic relations between the members of the equivalences in question. Arguments are provided for the view that this kind of equivalence is neither an exclusive feature of Daukša’s language nor of Old Lithuanian or of translated texts. Rather, it reflects the extensive use of one of the most central Renaissance figures of speech, ‘synonymia’ (also called ‘interpretatio’ or ‘paraphrasis’). The key role of this figure in the 16th century can be traced to the pre-eminence of one textbook, De copia of Erasmus of Rotterdam, which strongly influenced Renaissance education in both Western and Eastern Europe.

In-depth Interview as a Research Technique. Possibilities of Using IDI in Evaluation Studies

Wywiad pogłębiony jako technika badawcza. Możliwości wykorzystania IDI w badaniach ewaluacyjnych

Author(s): Radomir Miński / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 3/2017

Keywords: in-depth interview (IDI); evaluation studies; qualitative research; in-depth interview guide; difficult phenomena;

In this paper, an attempt was made to answer a question of usability of IDI (in-depth interview) for evaluation studies. Exploring new ways of technical support of the sociological workshop, it has been decided to focus on the IDI technique. While looking through sources some inconsistencies in using the term “IDI” occurred. In the author’s opinion, some researchers use this term intuitively. They put into practice the term “IDI” toward research’s technique, which, in fact, had nothing to do with it. It seems that the exploration of creative ways of integrating traditional aspects of sociological research with this new technique should not omit a fundamental rule of field study—strict judgment of data obtained in an innovative manner. This circumstances force us to design some border between IDI and other types of interviews, which serve as field studies tools. Hence, the second purpose of this article is to systematize available knowledge on applying in-depth interview in evaluation studies. As an example of a proper application of the IDI technique a proposition of some evaluation research on the topic of sponsorship phenomena is discussed here
